a line segment as an endpoint (0,-1) and a midpoint: (1,-8). the other endpoint is

( 2 , - 15 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

endpoint = ( 0 , -1 )

midpoint = ( 1 , - 8 )

Let the other end point be ( x , y )

The equation for finding the mid point of a line segment is given by :

mid point = ( ,

This means

(1 , -8 ) = ( , )

Equating the x - component , we have

1 =

1 = x/2

Therefore

x = 2

Also equating the y - component

- 8 =

-16 = -1 + y

-15 = y

Therefore :

y = -15

Therefore , the other endpoint is :

( 2 , - 15 )

24

step-by-step explanation:

if it takes 8 pounds to make 12 divide 12 by 8 and you get 1.5, 1.5 x 16 = 24
